Update - took possesion @ 9:15am today. Had a meeting at 12noon, so wanted to rush home park car, take my 38 and head out to work. The jam on the NKVE was bad heading into Bukit Jelutong. So i detoured off Guthrie, wanting to take the back route to get home. Well I got lost somewhat between LATAR, Guthrie and ended up near Bestari Jaya! But it gave me an awesome opportunity to test the baby! Man, I am scared to drive the car......it is FAST and POWERFUL!!! Response is almost instanteneous. Handles like a dream on the PSS10...horrible when slow and on bumpy roads (ridiculous and annoying bump stop sounds), but when you take her above 80kmh, she sticks to the road like rails and the whole suspension softens up on straights and stiffens on corners. WOW!!! I cant wait to finish this meeting in the office, head home and take her out for another spin. I think i better learn how to tame her 1st. Pics to come
